McAfee has reviewed multiple reports of modified Petya ransomware variants.
McAfee Labs has analyzed and can confirm that McAfee Global Threat Intelligence
(GTI) is protecting against current known samples at the low setting.
Extensions currently known as being affected are: .3ds, .7z, .accdb, .ai, .asp,
.aspx, .avhd, .back, .bak, .c, .cfg, .conf, .cpp, .cs, .ctl, .dbf, .disk, .djvu,
.doc, .docx, .dwg, .eml, .fdb, .gz, .h, .hdd, .kdbx, .mail, .mdb, .msg, .nrg,
.ora, .ost, .ova, .ovf, .pdf, .php, .pmf, .ppt, .pptx, .pst, .pvi, .py, .pyc,
.rar, .rtf, .sln, .sql, .tar, .vbox, .vbs, .vcb, .vdi, .vfd, .vmc, .vmdk, .vmsd,
.vmx, .vsdx, .vsv, .work, .xls, .xlsx, .xvd, .zip
We have confirmed with the samples that SMB is being used as a propogation
method, and are aware of reports that RDP may also be used but have yet to
confirm this.
After encryption, impacted systems may show a ransom screen and suggest a system
reboot after which the system will not be accessible.
McAfee has released V2 DAT [8574] and V3 DAT [3025.0] which covers the samples
reviewed so far.
